Mliswa should not take people for granted

The former ZANU PF Mashonaland West chairperson, Temba Mliswa, expresses admiration and envy for the leadership qualities of President Robert Mugabe. His attempts at slighting President Mugabe's economic policies are a question of sour grapes.
Mliswa is not sincere as the man was fired from the ruling party. He is saying that President Robert Mugabe should have mercy on long suffering Zimbabweans and should hand over power to any of his deputies. Surely speaking, Mliswa was the one who campaigned for President Robert Mugabe in Mashonaland West when he was still in Zanu-PF.
Mliswa's efforts to blame President Mugabe's decision making on economic matters is both importune and unfortunate and leads to the conclusion that the leader of the pressure group, Youth Advocacy for Reform and Democracy (Yard) is a lightweight on the issues of economic importance.
It seems that he believes that Zimbabwe's economic woes, past and present, should be solely laid at the door of one man and his party. He is in a desperate mode to raise his political profile. Mliswa fools no one except his small group of youths who are characterized by confusion and profusion.
The man is either a very stupid man or else there is a method in his madness as he attempts to spruce up his image to gain access to the highest office on this land. Mliswa and his YARD, on their own, are insignificant coterie of individuals politically; it is who they represent that is a threat; that is the agents of regime change agenda.
The truth is that this man suffers from an extreme case of premature self-congratulation, and above all, he is power hungry. He is simply unfit to rule let alone to govern a country with such a deep and complex history as Zimbabwe. Instead, Mliswa should proffer how we should improve the economy.
In President Robert Mugabe we have a visionary leader who has proved to be a statesman in the world and has embarked on sound policies which have improved the image of Zimbabweans throughout the world. Therefore Mliswa and his brood of vipers should go to hell.
We know that Mliswa is moving towards the formation of a political party via the use and exploitation of the youths, who are not realizing this move. The man wants to form the party so that when the idea of forming a grand coalition materializes he will join others.
An attentive examination of the existing political landscape shows that all political parties in Zimbabwe do have their youth's political wings. The idea of forming an all youth's party falls away. In another startling development Mliswa is said to be a member, and representative of a South African based party EFF. The man should be serious not to take people for granted.
Mliswa should not take people for granted as we all know that the man is so cunning; he is a master of extortion and has used ZANU PF to accumulate wealth. The man should concentrate on campaigning for the Norton Constituency parliamentary seat without mudslinging President Mugabe as he was part and parcel of ZANU (PF).
